Serotonin-immunoreactive neurons in the antennal lobes of the American cockroach Periplaneta americana: light- and electron-microscopic observations.
A large deutocerebral serotonin-immunoreactive neuron arborizes profusely in the glomeruli of the antennal lobes, and also sends neurites into the lateral lobe and the calyces of the mushroom bodies in the ipsilateral protocerebrum. Electron micrographs of the glomerular neuropil show that the main synapses of the serotonin-immunoreactive arborizations are output contacts with unidentified neuron profiles. Only a few synaptic input contacts with serotonin-labeled fibers were observed.
